This guy - Scott Leigh Canarn was jailed a couple of years ago for exactly the same thing. He was then running a company called 'Scocan Wholesale'. I was ripped off back in 2005 for a couple of grand. I did manage to get it back however and have him sent down!

I kept all the emails from the police etc. and have a contact with Berkshire Constabulary who are very familiar with this idiot.

Just googled his name, if it's the same person, seems like he was arrested for Ponzi scheme:

"I was taken in by a UK con artist Scott Leigh Canarn who was jailed for a ponzi scheme after investigation by the UK Serious Fraud Office"

ive read every post so far and id love to see this guy go down as a message to all the scammers in the online wholesale industry.

any new updates?
this is irrelevant but as this forum is read often, all users should avoid the website http://www.scswholesale.com/ as its as fraudulent as it gets.

This is good to hear, but we cant verify he is actually being tried or sentenced. You are, in my opinion, most likely to be Scott or an accomplice attempting to divert the attack squad.

Sorry if I have misjudged you, but you've given no convincing reason for the offended traders to discontinue their plan of action.

He isn't asking anyone to stop tracking him. He's advising people not to buy from him.

I don't know what the "closing down sale" was all about, his site compubitz.co.uk is down with the message:

Store2Go.net Merchant.


If you are the owner of this web store, please login to your control panel to activate this store.

Though his site is still there and trading at - shopcreator.com/mall/departmentpage.cfm/Compubitz/_274306/1 , which is where I found him.

by the way,now trading under the address:

Quote:
Compubitz Unit 2, Trafalgar Way, Camberley, UK, United Kingdom, GU15 3BN
07005802803 : support@compubitz.co.uk
Thought the prices looked too good to be true, which is why I decided to look it up on here, I'm glad that I did before parting with any hard earned cash!

All the best to those who got scammed but I seriously wouldn't be holding my breath if I were you.

Just hope this scumbag gets what he deserves!
